Why did Jay Shah reject the request to host Women’s T20 World Cup in India?

Since it has been formed now, they will give it priority as required. As of now, we have spoken to them and the sooner we get a response, the better we will be able to understand the situation. We spoke to them very late yesterday (Thursday) and they had very little time for it.

Most of the people involved in the top leadership of the board are not present in Bangladesh at the moment. It will be interesting to see how long it will take for the board to function like before?
